PEOPLE. PLEASE READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE POSTING!!!

YOU MAY THINK THAT SOMEONE IS CALLING YOUR SPECIFIC PHONE NUMBER.

THEY DID NOT. THEY DID NOT CALL YOUR NUMBER SPECIFICALLY.

YOU WERE RANDOMALLY "ROBO" CALLED WITH A SPOOFED PHONE NUMBER ON A CALLER ID FOR A SCAM COMPANY.

Important message to all those that have received a call from this number:

There are several companies engaged in scam business using auto dialers. They are ALL scam outfits. They spoof phone numbers of victims all the time. Sometimes, they spoof non-working phone numbers. The phone number you searched for is just another victim of these scumbags. I've done a lot of research of these companies. Actually, there are several affiliated companies, that try to scam innocent victims. They are either owned by the same people, or they sell their business model to other crooks.

One scam is about auto warranties. The other is about credit card debt relief. They even have scams about dish television, home alarms, and more. Their MO is the same. The use an auto dialer, and call thousands of random numbers. They have no regard to the do not call lists. Your demands or complaints to them are worthless. They will continue to call you.

They will not remove you from their call lists. Why? BECAUSE THEY DO NOT MAINTAIN ANY. THEY ARE CROOKS. THEY HAVE NO REGARD TO THE MANY LAWS THEY BREAK.

If they call about a car warranty, the message says something as "This is the second notice on your extended vehicle warranty. Press one now to speak to a representative..." The message about credit debt mentions "This is Account Services. We are calling to lower your credit card debt. Press one now to speak to a representative..." or "The is an important call from your cardmember services. This is your Final Notice. We have been trying to contact you?."


NOW, WHAT CAN WE DO ABOUT THIS? If you want to stop these crooks do the following
:
1) Speak to one of their customer service representatives. Pretend to be interested in either lowering your credit card interest rate or a car warranty. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY REAL INFORMATION. Do not ask how they "got" you number. (Remember, your number was randomly  dialed by a computer)

Tell them you have $20,000 in credit card debt. Give them a fake credit card number, a fake name, and a fake SS#. If the call is about the auto warranty scam, tell them you own a Ferrari, or a 1937 Dodge (however, if you really own one of those two, tell them you own a Buick). Give a made up VIN number. If they ask for your name and phone number, give them the info for the person you hate the most.

Your goal is simple. You want to engage them in friendly conversation to keep them on the phone for as long as possible. Be nice friendly. Your goal is twofold. You want to learn as much as possible about them. They will refuse to give you a website, phone number, or maybe even a real company name. They will attempt to give you a generic name such as "Account Services," "Financial Services," or "Dealer Services." This is done for a reason, to throw you and the government off their tracks. Do not accept this. Keep pressing for info. You will need this (see below). Oven when pressed for questions, they will hang up on you. Remember, they are instructed to do this. That is why you must not be confrontation. Be friendly and act as if you are genuinely interested.

Get the name of the company, and if you can, the city where they are located. Most of these scam companies are either in Florida, or in the Atlanta, Georgia area.

EVEN BETTER IS IF YOU CAN RECORD THE CALL.

Also, the time you take from them means them have less time to steal from someone who is unknowledgeable about their scams. They get paid to rip people off. Take away their time, and they make no money! I have kept them on the phone for up to 20 minutes! I realize that many of you do not have the time. But do you appreciate being taken advantage of?

Ever hear of Scambaiting? That is what you are doing!!! There are many entertaining web sites on this topic. For example, see:
http://www.419eater.com.


2) Get the details of these scumbags and post it on this and every other website you can find. Use only the information you get from talking from their representatives and information you get from public sources. DO NOT POST THE NAME AND ADDRESS OF THE PERSON THAT OWNS THE PHONE NUMBER ON YOUR CALLER ID. Their numbers were spoofed and they are victims.


3) YOU MUST REPORT THEM TO THE AUTHORITIES:

FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION!
Here is the link to file a complaint: http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION:
https://donotcall.gov/complaint/complaintcheck.aspx

You can also file a report with the Attorney General of your state. See the links below to see how effective this can be.

If everyone that received a call from these low-life scumbags does the same, then the combined action of thousands of us can stop these crooks from scamming innocent people out of money.

Additional information: This is what can happen if everyone were to complain!

See the following press releases to see how effective your complaints can be:

http://ago.mo.gov/newsreleases/2008/National_ ... filed_by_Nixon/
http://ftc.gov/opa/2008/05/telephoney.shtm

Let me tell you how I helped defeat a former scam company. Versadebt, that changed its name to VP Marketing, was scamming victims for years. I found the name of their company through conversation with one of their stupid representatives. And not only did I report them to the FCC and FTC each time, I also posted their contact information on the internet to make it easier for everyone to report.

Here is a story from Fox 5 Atlanta - WAGA that tells how WE took down VP Marketing, just one scam operation. Over 100,000 complaints were received by the FTC:
http://www.myfoxatlanta.com/dpp/news/i-team:-vp-marketing-sued-021710

If you get the name of the company,  here is how you can find their information if located in Georgia, with the search engine of the Georgia Department of State:
http://corp.sos.state.ga.us/corp/soskb/CSearch.asp

For example looking up VP Marketing, the former scam outfit, we see that it is owned by Jason Eyer, the dirt bag shown in the Fox 5 video. Here is how you can contact this person, courtesy of public records filed with the Georgia Department of State:
Jason Eyer
1603 Mosaic Way
Smyrna, GA  30080
407-902-1950
407-902-9377


Remember:

1) Be friendly and pretend to be interested
2) Try to get the name of the company
3) Research the name of the company using public records
4) Post the name of the company everywhere on the internet
4) Report them to the FCC, the FTC, and the state Attorney General's office

I have been on the Snagajob website the past few months and I've been receiving the following calls on my cell on a weekly basis: 877-298-3176, 678-365-0539, 865-291-1470, 925-418-3345, 877-839-7935, 914-963-5649.  I have googled them and some are affiliated with Snagajob.com. I don't answer them or any new numbers I don't know but it's annoying that someone is out there trying to get personal information. It's also unsettling that a major employment website such as Snagajob.com is allowing personal info to be accessed by outsiders!!!

Called regarding some credit card offer.  When I asked which card they specifically were calling about, the cs rep started listing off a number of card companies.  Told her I didn't have credit cards and that I thought the call was a scam.  She told me it wasn't a scam, then hung up on me.  Cowards.

I got a new phone number and within days this number was calling me to offer to lower my debt. I asked to be removed from their list the first couple of times. Now I just don't answer but they have called 3 times in the last week. I have tried to call the number back but I only hear some undecipherable mumbling followed by a disconnect.

answered the call even tho i usually don't answer when i don't know the caller; the canned message said that it was a 'courtesy call' to tell me that my credit card account is being closed.  i don't use credit cards, and they didn't say which one, so i knew it was a scam.  calling back resulted in the same canned voice saying, 'found in our database', then a hang up on their end.

i am on the do not call list so this is definitely not legit.

These people called first on June 28th from this number.  This is one of many numbers around the country they have called my cell phone from.  For what it's worth, I've never received an unwanted call to my cell phone before this phishing/scam firm in the 9 years I've had the number.

landline registered with MCI.. vishing or voice phishing scam.. where they ask you for you ss# to verify you.. then ask you for your card #..

unfortunately filing a claim with DNC or the state doesnt help.. the phone companies sponsoring these people should be held accountable.. need to get legal on phone company to release names and have state AG take them to court.. this will be Georgia AG.

These guys just called. They claimed to have been calling and giving me notices to pay my credit card before it gets cancelled and this was the final notice. Press 1 to speak to someone. I did and a girl answered. I asked who she was and she hung up. I called back and their recording says "found in our database" and hangs up. It is scary knowing that someone will answer this and be like "FINAL NOTICE??? my credit card will be cancelled??? Oh no!" and fall for this. This is definitely a scam and beware. I will report this to the website DNC.GOV website and I hope everyone does the same. The more it gets written, someone will take action.

There are multiple DNC lists (worked for a telemarketing company, learned the ins and outs). When you get a call like that you have to do more the just ask to be put on the DNC, you need to ask to be put on the company DNC, the provider's DNC, and there are others (haven't worked it in a little while, can't remember off the top of my head) because when you say "put me on the DNC, legally they are allowed to assume you mean the DNC of the service provider. Companies almost never do their own calling, they do it through telemarketing agencies (like the one I was at). the company I was working for calls on behalf of a certain bank (due to a legal discloser that I signed, I will not state either busyness's name). but basically, if the auto dialer got a call, and the customer says "don't call here again", that isn't an official request to be put on the DNC, they aren't put on the DNC. they say "remove me from your list", it is to be assumed that they are talking about the list that the company they are calling on behalf of, not the agency's list (there are multiple lists, that's how company's get around the "DNC"). If you say "put me on the service provider's DNC as well as your company's DNC", then not only will you no longer receive calls from the company selling the product/service, as well as from the telemarketing agency that is making the calls so if any other company with your name on their list uses that company, they will be forced to not call you. Keep in mind that it will take up to 30 days to process so you MAY still be called in that time (they should tell you that, if they don't, then they are breaking the law). Oh, and it might help to get the name of the marketing agency from the caller
